Quoting Chris Barham <[email protected]>:

Hi,
Is anyone able to retrieve and delete the polygons defining the extent
of coverage of Nearmap and Yahoo imagery over Aus?  These polygons are
irrelevant now.
I tried to come up with a way... but failed :-(

From memory the bing imagery is in a relation - no idea if Nearmap and Yahoo are also - if they are, once one way is added to JOSM, the others can be loaded as part of the relation, then deleted. (P.S. don't delete the bing boundaries!)

I was thinking about doing a similar thing for the old suburb boundaries - the only problem is if a node in the suburb boundary is also used by another way then the nodes will vanish (unless I load the entire country into JOSM - not practical on dial-up wireless internet!) This shouldn't be a problem for the imagery boundaries as they shouldn't share nodes with anything else. We could start by removing unedited suburb boundaries (i.e. no river or road names added to the way) - although I have noticed in the past that some rivers have used the same nodes with a different way.
